While many have called on Washington Redskins owner Daniel Snyder to change the team’s name, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D, Calif.) is proposing an alternate strategy: hitting Snyder’s wallet.

Pelosi, speaking Thursday at an event hosted by the National Congress of American Indians, called for the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to tell the NFL that the league can’t keep the registered trademark for the Washington Redskins. The trademark prevents unlicensed vendors from making and selling merchandise with the team name and logo

During her speech, Pelosi said:

"“We all respect freedom of speech, but the trademark office has rejected names which are considered offensive and they should do it now. They can keep their name on the team, but when it comes to all the stuff — that’s serious money. So I think that is one path that we can go.”

Yes, in fact we all do "respect freedom of speech", Nancy. That is, until someone says something you and your fellow Liberals don't like.

Pelosi should lose her job. Unfortunately, since she's from, as Gallagher would call it, the state of Granola ["what ain't fruits and nuts is flakes"], she won't. Maybe they could name the team after her: "The D.C Morons", or "The Fighting Botox". Just a thought.

Well I think the Rat party should lose their trademark too. Jackasses actually are useful and do work. Rat pols like this old whore do nothing but waste oxygen.
